PRO 6 poor read performance??
Just got a PRO 6, and started by installing a single Seagate ST31500341AS hard drive as XRAID2. (only spare disk I have at the moment, the real disks are on order). Performance settings are defaulte...
-forgot to post the logged Bonnie output - DD Result:59.2MB/s. Not sure what load that represents, but it happens to be about the read speed I get when directly connected to the PRO. When the same drive is connected to the PC directly, Iometer gets 122 MB/s. It would be interesting to hear what other PRO 6 users are seeing with Bonnie.
-I haven't ruled out client NIC drivers, though I am getting lower than expected results on more than one PC. Unfortunately 2 of them are corporate PCs, where I don't have the ability to disable the antivirus software. The third might well have a NIC issue.
-Has anyone measured performance improvements for the basic NAS functionality when the memory is upgraded? I'm leaving the 1 GB as is for the time being, but am curious.
Thanks for the tips, I will update this when I get the additional drives.
